A dentist in Niagara Falls, Ontario, James Frizzell, DDS, has treated patients at Frizzell Dentistry since 1993. Employing a team of four dental hygienists at the Niagara Falls office, Dr. James Frizzell performs cosmetic, general, and restorative dentistry, including the installation of crowns.
Crowns can effectively restore the shape, structure, and appearance of a damaged or weak tooth. Because a porcelain crown matches the tooth color, it makes an aesthetically pleasing choice for a front tooth. Additionally, porcelain is resistant to temperature changes, which means patients are less likely to experience sensitivity to heat or cold.
Another option for patients is a porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crown, which places a porcelain exterior over a durable metal interior. This option combines the strength of metal with the aesthetic appeal of porcelain.
Finally, all-metal crowns work well for molars farther back in the mouth, where appearance is less of a concern. They can also withstand heavy chewing.
